    Ah Jetfire, another MISB collector or so I can see there?

    And thanks dirge and kup for your replies. I wasn't really impressed on them as well after I played with them, they are good as individual figure but not as devastator - and I think the head hangs a tad too low.

    Very nice haul, amigo! I'm interested to hear your thoughts on Encore Bruticus...Did he turn out better than expected or is he a bit disappointing?

    Picked up today from Kmart (thanks to a Target sale price-match), Movie Voyagers Long Haul and Grindor (with Scorponok), and FABs Skids, Sand Bumblebee and Grindor.

    And with that, under my current counting method, I now officially have...



    2500 Transformers(r) toys



    (unofficially I have about 2600, but am currently still using my old counting system)

    Thought you might be interested. I just opened bruticus an in my opinion he is exactly as I expected, typical encore quality, it is no worse than eject/rewind or some if the minibots but not as crisp as omega supreme.

    The mold seem to be ok but not great, onslaught is the worst, vortex's legs and brawls guns are rough on mine and like most encore stuff it would be 100% better it it was assembled with more care.

    I think it is a little better than the club seacons, if you like encore you should like it.

    It isn't the best encore but it was worth releasing, care and effort has been put into the release and it is still a quality toy. I think if it has metal parts there would have been less complaints but whatever.

    Encore jazz had it but was awful I'm my opinion, this still feels and looks like the toy it is ment to be.

    Honestly a bit disappointing, obvious mould degradation issues, most annoyingly is that Bruticus' chest plate falls off if you look at it the wrong way.
